Oh, I'm sorry. I just dozed off.
My beautiful little baby is going through what the internets refer to as the "4 month wakeful" period.
Last night she went to bed at 7:30pm. Then actually went to sleep at 8:30. Then woke up at 9:30. Then 10:00. Then 10:30. And finally slept from 11:00-4:15, nursed, and went back to sleep.
Then at 5:40am, I hear her reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. Or MLKs "I Have a Dream" Speech. Or the entire script of "The Princess Bride" (which I can do too, btw). Either way, at 5:40am, she just had so much to say she couldn't bear to sleep anymore.
She laid in bed with us talk, talk, talking and practicing her crunches (girlfriend just HAS to sit up now) but I had to get ready for work. Then while drinking my coffee, I got to play downstairs with her for an hour, and she couldn't have been happier. It's nice because I usually don't get to see her in the mornings before I leave for work,. Getting up at 5:40am on the weekends will not be quite as nice, so let's get this worked out by Saturday, mmmkay love?
Since I had to actually look decent for work today because we have some big whigs coming in, I had to put her back in bed with Jon eventually so I could get ready. And by get ready I mean I used hairspray today. I bet I look super fly.
When I came back in the room to grab my shoes and give them both a kiss goodbye, this is what I saw:
I love my life.
Haha, the first line cracked me up! That picture is precious!
ReplyDeleteThank you! They're both pretty cute :)
Deletethat picture is just too sweet! I couldn't sleep last night too - must be my body's way of prepping me for when sweet pea comes!
ReplyDeleteYep, get ready!!! I hope your sweet pea sleeps through the night from day one... That'll happen, I swear.
DeleteToo precious and a little jealous that I don't get to do that more with my babies!
ReplyDeleteOh how presh is that?! I miss those days with my baby!!!! She isn't quite a baby anymore. Being that she's gonna be 20 months this month. Ahhh, she won't let us cuddle her like that if her life depended on it! But those days were the BEST! Love it!
ReplyDeletePerfection!
